Hill repeats up Memory Grove hill. 6 x 3 minutes. Goal was to be somewhere around a 7:05 pace, but ended up pushing it harder. Progressed down with each repeat from a 7:06 to the last one at 6:21. Just focused on effort and time and did not look at distance. After uploading the data the repeats ranged from .43 to .48.

Felt good and built more confidence for St. George.

I think you will do well on the hills. The last thing I would consider mixing in is some sort of mini-simulation of St. George on a long run where you do a long hill or a few longer hills 1/3 of the way through.

That is a good idea Josh. I am trying to think of where a good route would be for that.

Start of the DesNews marathon is good for that. The last couple of years I have done it preparing for St. George. Start up big mountain and then up little mountain and down emigration. I plan on doing it again this year.

John, when do you plan on doing that run? I wouldn't mind doing it in the next couple of weeks. Perhaps next weekend even? Or, maybe the week after is better for your prior ailments.

I am on call next Saturday, so that is probably not a good day for me. I was thinking sept. 6 for that run if it works for you.
